Trial summary

Atypical cavities, which involve more than two surfaces, one being buccal or lingual/palatal, are a challenge for restorative dentistry, since the risk of restorative failure is related to the number of surfaces involved. Read more about this study

  • Child

Who may be able to join

  • Children will be included who have at least one posterior tooth with atypical caries lesion.

Who cannot join

  • Patients with special needs will be excluded, with general health conditions that may affect the oral cavity, non-cooperating in relation to the examination, which use orthodontic apparatus and the parents/guardians or children not to consent to their participation in the study. In addition, teeth with pulp exposure, spontaneous pain, mobility, presence of swelling or fistula close to the tooth, furcation or cervical injury, teeth with restorations, sealants or enamel formation defects will be excluded.

About this study

Official title: Comparison of a Chemically Activated Composite Resin Alkasite With Resin Composite in Atypical Caries Lesions of Deciduous Teeth - A Non-inferiority Randomized Clinical Trial

Atypical cavities, which involve more than two surfaces, one being buccal or lingual/palatal, are a challenge for restorative dentistry, since the risk of restorative failure is related to the number of surfaces involved. Thus, the purpose of this umbrella project is to conduct a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to evaluate the efficacy and patient-centered outcomes of a chemically activated composite alkasite resin in atypical deciduous molar lesions. Primary molars of children aged 4 to 7 years with at least one atypical cavitary lesion in primary molars will be selected for the RCT. The selected teeth will be randomly divided into: Alkasite chemically activated composite resin and Bulk fill composite resin. Clinical and radiographic follow-up of the lesions will be performed for 6 and 12 months. The effectiveness of the treatments will be evaluated by the longevity of the restorative procedures and paralysis of the lesions. Patient-centered outcomes will also be evaluated.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Dental Restoration with Chemically activated Composite resin AlkasiteProcedure or surgery

    Selective removal of dental caries with manual instruments, under relative isolation, application of universal adhesive system and restoration with chemically activated composite resin Alkasite.

  • Dental Restoration with Bulk fill resin compositeProcedure or surgery

    Selective removal of dental caries with manual instruments, under relative isolation, application of universal adhesive system and restoration with bulk fill resin composite.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Survival of restoration

    To evaluate the survival of restoration by clinical examination with FDI index.

    Measured: 12 months after treatment.

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Caries lesion progression

    For the evaluation of caries progression, the interproximal radiographic examination will be used to verify an increase of radiolucent image under restoration.

    Measured: 12 months after treatment.

  2. Secondary caries lesion or on the surface adjacent to the restored tooth

    Presence of caries lesion on the surface adjacent to the restored tooth or on the margins of the restoration by means of visual Clinical Examination.

    Measured: 12 months after treatment.

  3. Perception of children and parents/guardians

    To evaluate the satisfaction of the children in relation to the treatment performed. The questionnaire will be used "Child's and parent's questionnaire about teeth appearance".

    Measured: 6 months after treatment.

  4. Operator perception

    It will be employed a questionnaire after the completion of the treatment performed. It will also be added a question about the behavior of children during the procedure, which will be categorized as - great behavior, regular or bad.

    Measured: 6 months after treatment.

  5. Parents/Guardians Satisfaction

    The parents/guardians will be questioned about the satisfaction regarding the treatment performed in the child. The answer will be scored by a likert scale.

    Measured: 6 months after treatment.

  6. Child discomfort

    The child will also be questioned as to the discomfort in relation to the treatment performed. For this will be used the scale of faces of Wong-Baker.

    Measured: Immediately after the treatment.

  7. Post Operative sensitivity of the child

    The child will also be questioned about the sensitivity of the restorative procedure. For this, the Wong-Baker face scale will be used.

    Measured: 7 days after treatment.

  8. Oral health-related quality of life

    The validated Brazilian version of Early Childhood Oral Health Impact Scale (ECOHIS) will be applied to children and should be answered by their parents.

    Measured: 6 months after treatment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Dental Restoration with Chemically activated Composite resin Alkasite and Dental Restoration with Bulk fill resin composite in people with Dental Caries in Children, run by Faculty Sao Leopoldo Mandic Campinas at 1 site in Brazil.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Dec 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Brazil. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Survival of restoration (time frame: 12 months after treatment.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Dec 2019.
